WTXF Good Day Philadelphia At 6a May 21, 2015

5. 21 2015. I cant he that it. One more number 9. No upside down. Its a 6. Itsing going to be lower 60s today. We might get a few spring also this morning and some more rain is possible this afternoon. Were got the rain gear on buddy just in case. The phillies cap they won last night. Heres whats happening. Weve got the rain out to our west in the western part of pennsylvania and down on our south as well. The question is, will it make it here this morning . The problem is its trying to, but the air mass is very dry from yesterday. Relative humidity is very low. Well see what happens this morning. You see quite a few clouds out there. The north easterly breeze at six miles an hour. 55degrees relative humidity at only 45 percent. Sunshine just happened at 5 41 this morning. So it probably be for most of us a dry morning commute, maybe a sprinkle or two, and temperatures in the 50s. Going home this afternoon we could run into some rain and temperatures will probably top off at about 62degrees today with very much below average because its supposed to be 75, bob kelly like it was yesterday. I love your dashboard look at that, the fancy paneling on the front of the dash. We spent big bucks on a car. Good morning everybody 6 02 were beginning with a shutdown of the pennsylvania turnpike. I told you about this one last time around. All westbound lanes closed between route 29, ez pass express exit and down incorporate ton, a fully engulf ed truck fire, tractor trailer. The cab is what is fully engulfed. Hopefully the firefighters can get there before the rest of the truck gets engulf. Again all westbound lanes closed right now. You can only get off of that route 29 ez pass if you have ez pass. The best exit is going to be exiting at valley forge and working their way south to 202. Its in a rough spot. If you decide to exit at that route 29 ez pass without the ez pass youre going to get a bill in the main from the turnpike. That has happened to me a couple of times when i forgot to put my sensor up there. They send you a bill for the entire length. They assume that you got on at philadelphia and youre going all the way to the end. Its like a 60some dollar bill that you get in the male. So dont roll the dice exit the at valley forge take 20 south to 100 north and that will get you around the truck fire. Coppers on the way. Well take you there when we get there. If you want to use arizona ez pass you better have ez pass. Breaking news this morning coming out of West Philadelphia. Police are investigating an overnight murr but theyre calling it very unusual. A man is shot, then hes run over by a car and thats just the beginning of this weird, twisted tail. Foxs steve keeley has the story. Reporter two days after a guy being shot 18 times this guy shot 12 times at the stroke of midnight isnt the coincidental part, believe it or not. Thats the sad part. This guy never really stood a chance. Even though police heard the gunfire on patrol. They get to the guy within seconds, get him into the police car to the hospital within moments because its not too far away because besides being shot at dozen times at point blank range close enough that the bullet shots rolled off his body just inches away, in between those few moments of getting shot and police getting to him he also got something else, run over by a 79 year old arrested for drunk driving. You know of that at least 12 shots were fired from a semi automatic weapon. We found 12 spent shell casings, some were just feet away from where the victim had collapsed which is indication that he was the intended target and also an indicator that he was shot from point blank range. We did find a nearby business in the area that does have exterior surveillance cameras, so hopefully those cameras recorded something that could help us with our investigation. Right now we do not have a motive for the shooting. Its just a very unusual homicide for our shooting victim after having been shot multiple times he fell down on girard avenue and then was run over by a 79 year old male who had to be stopped by police two blocks away. That 79 year old male is in custody for drunk driving. Now i dont have the experience that a chief inspector with the police department, highly respected scott small has, but i think i have the motive because once they get to the hospital and they declare him dead inside his pockets they find crack cocaine and another loaded gun. Just a hypothesis about a motive right there. By the way the story does event even end there. It gets worse than that. What scott small didnt have time to tell you was in addition to those 12 shots one of those bullets somehow goes through the victim and into the drivers side car of a car driving by girard avenue with a couple in the front see the and just misses their heads by inches. What a story. Yesterday we started the show with a guy that was shot 18 times. Today, 12 times into one guy. My goodness. 6 06. A shooting in norristown leaves a man fighting for his life. The unidentified victim was shot multiple times just before 11 30 last night on the 100 block of pearl street. He was flown to many to as jefferson hospital. No word on a suspect or a motive.

The brothers accused of killing a Philadelphia Police officer waived their preliminary hearing yesterday.
